First, the yacht is more beautiful and modern than the pictures looked. We were so pleased. There were 5 of us women, and we went to Key West for Fantasy Fest, so of course we overpacked, but we were able to make the best of the space (as to be expected. After all, it’s a boat!), and one was even able to use the marina wifi to work remotely every morning. We made an afternoon of the dipping pool with drinks, and the marina bathrooms made it easy for the 5 of us to use the bathroom and get ready for days and nights out.
Hosts Shon and Holly were so nice and very accessible and helpful with our questions about the yacht and area. They even met us at the yacht to show us things and tell us about the area! Shon helped us charter a boat for a half-day out on the water; a true Key West experience. Marina staff (Shannon!) and the staff at the adjoining restaurant (Hogfish) were SO nice and helpful! And the restaurant has super delicious food and drinks. Many locals told us Hogfish is known for their good food.
I rated the area a 4 ONLY because it is a marina area and not walkable to stores. But this Stock Island location is a quick Uber/taxi ride to Key West, Ubers/taxis were always available in 5 minutes or less, Ubers/taxis were affordable and we used Door Dash for our food and alcohol needs. It was nice to not be in the middle of the chaos of the festival; we were also able to relax.
We would definitely book this again!
